Amazon Basics Wired QWERTY Keyboard, Full-Sized, Black

I’ve gone through my fair share of keyboards, but this one stands out for all the right reasons. From the moment I started typing, I noticed how smooth and quiet the keys are—no more loud clicking or finger fatigue after long hours of work!What I Love:✅ Comfortable, responsive keys for a natural typing experience✅ Full-sized layout with a numeric keypad—great for productivity✅ Plug-and-play setup, no hassle with extra software✅ Durable and lightweight, making it easy to move aroundOne small thing to note—there’s no backlighting, but that’s not a dealbreaker for me. If you're looking for a reliable, comfortable, and budget-friendly keyboard, this is the one to get. Highly recommend!

it is a functional keyboard with no major issues. given that it's also the cheapest keyboard I could find on the market, that is plenty good enough. if all you need is something that allows you to type, this is the way to go.

The Amazon Basics Wired Keyboard offers a straightforward and dependable typing experience at an accessible price point. Its full-sized QWERTY layout, including a numeric keypad, makes it suitable for various tasks, from everyday computing to light office work.

The media could not be loaded. I bought this because the J key on my last keyboard has worn down such that the indicator nub is not easily recognized by a gentle touch, so I end up having to look down at the keyboard to find my correct finger placement (or press a key then adjust based on what key was pressed, then delete the character). That kind of defeats the purpose of having the indicator there in the first place, and slows me down (because then I need to find where I was looking on the screen again).This keyboard is a bit heftier than my last (the one it's replacing), and has a few extra features (notably the media control buttons). It's also a few dollars more expensive, which is expected since shipping is baked into the price on Amazon. The key touches aren't terribly loud (though they seem to be on the video for whatever reason), and they've got appropriate resistance to being pressed. I don't suspect I'll accidentally hit any key and have it register a keypress just by my finger glancing over it.The main issue I have with this is the indicator nubs on the F and J keys aren't very pronounced. You can see from the pictures I took that they're just barely there. If that's what you're looking for: Fantastic. It's not what I was hoping for, and so it gets a star removed for me.Other thoughts:I like the placement of the Fn key in relation to the location of the Ctrl key (especially on the bottom left corner). With other keyboards I've used the manufacturer puts the Fn key on the outside, so when I go to copy and paste I get annoyed instead. I just always expect to have the furthest key on the bottom left as the Ctrl key.

I have had this keyboard since October/ November 2023. It is now the end of May 2025 and have had zero issues. I am a fast typer and no problems with keys sticking or lagging at all like others have commented. There aren't any "feet" on it which I didn't like at first but I got used to it very quickly. My only issue now is one of my kids got a tiny drop of syrup inside one of the keys and it sticks. I was hoping to see if the keys could be removed, cleaned, and added back. I have not found that info yet. I don't want to pop them off if they won't pop back on.

This keyboard is exactly what I wanted. The keys have a little bit of height but not too much, and not too little like on a laptop - they're just right. The size of the keys is perfect, too. And, the keyboard sits fairly flat with very little angle under the back edge. In fact, there are no adjustment feet under the corners. I like a very flat keyboard, so this is is what I was looking for. And, last but not least, there aren't extra contours or padding areas. making this thing very slim from bottom edge to top edge (think from space bar to F keys). I don't have a lot of room on my desk and wanted a modestly-sized keyboard, but with 10-key and all the extra buttons like up/dn/L/R and the home/delete/pg up and down etc. This is exactly what I wanted and it was cheap! It also came in a wireless option for about double the price, but I have the spare USB slot on my docking station, so this is fine.

It's the perfect little Chiclet style keyboard. I wish it had feet, but that's easily remedied.

The only drawback we can find on this keyboard is there is no risers for the back of the keyboard to tilt it. So if you plan to use this full time and you like your keyboard at a little bit of an angle I would keep looking. Otherwise it works great, and the keys are quiet.
